Both are impotant. what a person do with moral ethics without knowledge and vice versa . so we must, as techers, grow both knowledge and ethics in our pupils
The role of teacher has shifted from an authoritarian, manager role to a coaching role.Good teachers today are good coaches.Schooled before the days of equal access to sports, I never had the privilege of being a part of a sports team. Yet now as the mom of three boys, I witness extraordinary coaching and the positive effects of that practice regularly.What do good coaches do?Know Your TeamGood coaches know their team--they know the individuals and the collective group. Good coaches make the time to know the children they are coaching with breadth and depth. Good coaches ask the team to share their needs, questions, and concerns, and then the coaches respond effectively.
Set GoalsGood coaches are goal oriented. They know where they want to take the team.StrategizeGood coaches strategize. They thoughtfully create personalized maps of training, practice, and performance that leads to the ultimate goal.Analyze and ReviseGood coaches analyze and revise strategy. They look at the efforts at play and make changes to optimize the journey towards the goal.Encourage and InspireGood coaches encourage their team. They know the team needs regular inspiration, acknowledgement, care, and support to meet the challenges in front of them.Seek SupportGood coaches seek mentors themselves. They know they can't do it alone and rely on the support of their colleagues, staff, mentors and professional learning to do the job well.Understand Learning
Good coaches understand that learning is a trial and error process, a curvy line not a straight arrow. Good coaches expect error and mistakes, and use those errors and mistakes to guide individuals and the team.
FocusGood coaches keep their focus on what's right and good for the individuals and team. They know that winning isn't always the most important focus.Create CommunityGood coaches create community. They foster team.CelebrateGood coaches celebrate a job well done regularly
My overarching goal as a teacher this year is to be a good coach. That's a goal I believe in, and one that I'm excited to invest in.If you have links, thoughts, ideas, and questions about this, please share. I look forward to your inspiration. both are important and go hand in hand to build better individuals. :P
i think it is a combination of both,,,,depending on your character of course and the way you deliver the information to the students.
As an English teacher, my main goal is to teach my students English. Professionally, it matters more to adhere to my main task, but personally, my main pleasure is when I teach my students something about life that makes them better people.
The real purpose of education is to produce honest and sincere human beings. An educated dishonest leader/person is worse than an honest and sincere less educated/illiterate person. Look around the world and the answer to the following question. How dishonest well-educated leaders are doing?
Hence my answer to the question is as follows:
I believe that both teaching and building good ethics in the character of my student is equally important.

I would say, professionaly as a teacher's job is to finish the task for which he/she has been assigned and personaly teacher can adrress or teach them values,ethics everything.
i think a teacher should build good etichs in students character a new born human being is like an animal if you will not build good ethics in students character they wil be danger for community.
Building ethics is an integral part of learning. learning is meaningless if vacant of ethics.
